🗞️ Team News: Sheffield Wednesday

Olaf Kobacki (Groin injury) and Guilherme Siqueira (Achilles tendon surgery) won’t be available for Sheffield Wednesday boss Henrik Pedersen.

ℹ️ Team News: Brentford

Brentford boss Keith Andrews has to choose a team with limited availability. Josh Dasilva (Knee surgery), Antoni Milambo (Cruciate ligament tear) and Fábio Carvalho (Cruciate ligament tear) miss out here.

💡 Prediction

In our view, Sheffield Wednesday will likely be able to breach the defence of this Brentford team, but one goal probably won’t be enough.

We’re therefore expecting a close game with a 1-2 winning score for Brentford when the full-time whistle blows. Could easily go either way, this.
